Faculty Recruitment

The university is committed to hiring highly qualified faculty members to ensure excellence in teaching, research, Extension, librarianship and service. Faculty searches and appointments require review and prior approval from the provost. Once a candidate has been selected (following a search or appointment of opportunity as defined in USU Policy 385) the dean or vice president will request approval prior to making an offer. To obtain approval on searches and appointments, follow the protocol below. For additional information related to faculty appointment procedures, review USU Policy 404.
